Factoring the polynomial [tex]4x^4-20x^2-3x^2 + 15[/tex] by grouping means separation of the polynomial in two addends, each of them consists of two addends:

[tex]4x^4-20x^2-3x^2 + 15=(4x^4-20x^2)+(-3x^2+15).[/tex]

In first brackets the common factor is [tex]4x^2,[/tex] in second brackets the common factor is [tex]-3.[/tex]

Then

[tex](4x^4-20x^2)+(-3x^2+15)=4x^2(x^2-5)-3(x^2-5)=(x^2-5)(4x^2-3).[/tex]

Answer: correct choice is B

Since the factor of the polynomial [tex]\rm 4x^4 -20x^2-3x^2 + 15\\[/tex] is [tex]\rm(x^2-5)(4x^2 - 3)\\[/tex].

Thus, the correct option is B.

What is polynomial?

Polynomial is an algebraic expression that consists of variables and coefficients. Variable are called unknown. We can apply arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, etc. But not divisible by variable.

Given

The polynomial is [tex]\rm 4x^4 -20x^2-3x^2 + 15\\[/tex].

To find

The factors of the polynomial.

Simplify, the polynomial.

[tex]\rm 4x^4 -23x^2 + 15\\[/tex]

On factorizing, we get

[tex]\rm 4x^4 -20x^2-3x^2 + 15\\\\\rm 4x^2(x^2 - 5) -3(x^2 -5) \\\\\rm (x^2-5)(4x^2 - 3)\\[/tex]

Since the factor of the polynomial [tex]\rm 4x^4 -20x^2-3x^2 + 15\\[/tex] is [tex]\rm(x^2-5)(4x^2 - 3)\\[/tex].

Thus, the correct option is B.
